EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the 15th century, inside the serene Chapelle Saint-Fiacre in Le Faouet, Brittany, France. The focal point of this image is the intricately painted rood screen that stretches across the chapel's interior. This remarkable piece of medieval architecture showcases exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail. The rood screen depicts a powerful scene of crucifixion, with Christ suspended on the cross at its center. Surrounding him are various figures from biblical narratives, each meticulously rendered by an unknown French artist from centuries ago. Among these figures stands a kneeling figure - Jean V, Duc de Bretagne - paying homage to his faith. The composition and lighting captured in this photograph emphasize the solemn atmosphere within this sacred space. The play of light and shadows adds depth to every brushstroke on the rood screen's surface, enhancing its dramatic impact. As we gaze upon this historical artifact through Bridgeman Images' lens, we cannot help but marvel at how art has transcended time and continues to evoke emotions even today. This print serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with religious symbolism and our desire for spiritual connection. Whether you appreciate medieval art or simply admire architectural wonders from different eras, this image offers a glimpse into both history and artistic excellence that will undoubtedly leave you captivated.
